12/12 vs 18/6?

So I have these two autos in their fifth week of flowering. I have them on a 18/6 schedule. I also have three photos that have just started budding. I should add that the autos are indoors and the photos are outdoors. MY yard is configured so that no one part of the yard is exposed to constant sunlight due to excessive trees. Consequently, I'm moving the outdoor girls around the yard a few times throughout the day so as to get maximum sunlight. Being in my 60's and arthritic, this is getting to be exhausting. My question is would it ruin my indoor autos if they were put on a 12/12 schedule so I could move all my girls indoors, thus eliminating all that nasty manual labor?
 
I never bring a plant back indoors once it has been outside. Asking for bugs. I had the same situation in my yard about the sunlight. I used a garden cart on wheels to move plants around.
 
The autos will do just fine on a 12/12 schedule. Might hurt yields slightly but I doubt it would be enough to notice. But as others have said it's a big risk bringing outdoor plants inside. With the stable conditions and lack of natural predators pest populations can explode overnight and be a nightmare to get rid of
 
I've had outdoor plants inside before and it was not a problem. Nothing that Jack's Bug Juice, Copper Fungicide and Neem oil can't handle.
